' "After finishing my fourth bottle of Tanlac I found I had actually trained twelve pounds," said Mrs. Arch Allen, of 3322 N. 65th street, Omaha, Neb. Mrs. Allen formerly lfved in Evansville, Ind., and was at 'one time a nurse in a hospital near that city. "I had suffered from stomach trouble," she .continued, "till I was hardly more than a frame and hadn't the strength left to lift my little tea months old baby. My nerves were so unstrung that I couldn't raise a saucer from the table without my hand trembling like a leaf. My food would sour on my stomach, causing gas to form that affected my heart so I could hardly breathe. I often had dizzy Spells and violent headaches and was in so much misery at times I cojild hardly stand it Sometimes I would be confined to my bed for as much as two weeks at a time, and although I had the best of treatment and took all kinds of medicines I kept getting worse in stead of better. "I was nursing at a hospital near Evansville, Ind., when I first heard of Tanlac, several of the nurses there had taken Tanlac so success fully for stomach trouble that I decided to try it, too. I felt greatly relieved while on my first bottle, soon the gas stopped forming and I could eat all I wanted without suffering afterwards. The head aches and dizzy spells gradually left me and I kept gaining in weight and strength right along. My nerves are in better shape now than they have ever been. I sleep like a baby and get up feeling thoroughly rest ed and refreshed. In fact, I feel well and strong all the time now nd can do all my housework with aut the least trouble." Tanlac is sold in Omaha at all Sherman & .McConnell Drug Com pany's stores, Harvard Pharmacy and West End Pharmacy.

Cold Weather, Intensified by Coal Crisis, Booms Sale of Marriage Licenses in Face of World Unrest . Divorce Mill Practically Closed Down. ; J An extraordinary boom in the marriage license business in Doug las county is a development of the present cold wave and coal short age days, which Marriage License Clerk Stubbendorf calls to the at tention of a shivering world. Twenty-two couples were licensed to wed Monday. Up to noon yester day a dozen more had written their nanie with numb, lingers and hur ried away to the minister's house. "I can't explain it except on the theory that two can keep warm much better than one," says Mr. Stubbendorf, "I never saw such a boom 1 in licenses right after Thanksgiving time. Usually all those intending to get married do so before the holiday and there is a slump in the demand the next few days." .. . In Good Style for $5. "You may not be able to get coal but you can get married for ap proximately $3 this including $2 for the license and a stingy $1 for the clergyman or magistrate," said County Judge Crawford. "For $5, the price of a couple of meals for two, the thing can be done up ijt good style with a decent fee to the officiating clergyman or magis trate." Rev. Charles W. Savidge, the "marrying parson," who. has mar ried 5,000 couples, comes forward with many quotations from the Scriptures' to show that these are the ''times of trouble" prophesied in Old Testament times. What this has to do with marry ing, some people will not be able to see and others will. Oh, yes, they will. Anyway,, Rev. Mr. Sav idge continues thus: "But there is one thing to which I desire to call especial attention. "Business of different sorts will be seriously affected, but there is one line that will continue good, and that is marriage. "In the time of the- flpod they married and were given in marriage till they were all swept 'away. I have an idea that after No.ah went in the ark and God shut him in that the marrying preacher of that day stood in the swirling waters and married his last couple. "And it will be so in this day. It is really surprising that no times are. so threatening, no weather so lng programs as long as required by the coal shortage. Midweek meet ings and all young people's services are to be held In private homes. There are many who had been troubled with indigestion and constipation for years that have been restored to health by Chamberlain's Tablets. Intense, no prospects so dark, that will deter or put a damper on this business of mating and homemak- iug. , "People are determined to marry, although the weather is excessively cold and although a calamity is threatened with regard to fuel." To make still more -amazing th mysterious psychological relation ot cold weather, lack of coal and mar riage, the divorce mill has come almost to a'stop the last few frigid days. Only one decree was grant ed yesterday in , divorce court, whereas there areu sually from six to 15 in a dayv Ain't these nights cold? Chief of Visiting Nurses Boosts Sale of Xmas Seals Miss Florence McCabe, superin tendent of the Visiting Nurse asso ciation of Omaha, urges Omahans to bear in-mind that a per cent of the receipts from the sale of Red Cross Christmas seals sold by the Ne braska Tuberculosis association will be credited to her association. "Our association," Miss McCabe said, "is attending to 300 cases ot tuberculosis in Omaha and we have been maintaining one nurse forthis part of the work. We should havj two more nurses for this work. We trust that our friends will liberally patronize these Christmas seals and thus help us, as well as the Ne braska Tuberculosis association." The Bee's Free Slioe Fund The children of the Omaha public school up to the eighth grade sent in a Thanksgiving tiering of $37.4 to buy shoes for the children of the desperately poor. When the school children start to buy shoes for those who can't come to school for want of shoes, they do something big because of their large numbers. There is more coming from the school children later. This contribution will furnish a good many pairs of shoes for poor little kinds. l'rr loiiKly acknowledged .... 1401 M Children In Omaha elementary fc( hooli 87 42 Total S1.1S 43 Let the children lead YOU.
